[edit]

The bulk of this article is written in a style that to me seems inconsistent with the aims of an encyclopaedia. I don't contest the information presented so much as the style. It's very chatty and informal, and written from a first-person perspective which makes it appear somewhat like an advert or tour guide of some sort. Also the History section is entirely uncited so all of the statements made are open to question.

At the moment I'm limited for time, but I'll have a look at this article as soon as I can unless anyone else gets to it first. - Laterensis (talk) 16:04, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Further to the above, I found that the History section as it stood was a straight pull from the 'About Us' section of the Galleries of Justice website, which is a copyrighted source (not to mention a bit dubious presentation-wise). I've pared the section down to what appear to be the basic facts, although there are still issues here. I've now marked the section with a paraphrase template, since there's still a strong resemblance to the text as it appears on the GoJ site. Even so, if the GoJ site is considered an appropriate source, the information is still valid and it would be useful to have it included. If I get chance to do some research (and I confess it's not all that likely in the near future) I'll see if I can re-write the section again; but in the meantime if you think you can improve it by all means give it a shot. - Laterensis (talk) 08:02, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
